58 We don't agree with result

Bai Mo was standing there silently watching the people gather there. There were two more people standing with him, they are without doubt Ning Mo and Ning Bo.

Ning Mo "Jiang Chen isn't here yet? Do you think he was killed in the trial."

Bai Mo has an indifferent look on his face. 'Jiang Chen alone killed over hundred martial artists of your family and yet you think he died in the trial where the highest cultivator participating is just a 3rd stage Martial artist.' he didn't say it aloud, he didn't tell anyone about Jiang Chen being the killer of Ning family disciples.

Bai Mo "Not just Jiang Chen, none from our family came back yet."

When they heard that there heart ached, there used to be more than two hundred geniuses in Ning Family, over fifty people died in that incident, there were 15 martial artists who would have been able to participate in the trial today and all of them were killed by that assailant. If they were alive , Ning family would have dared to send all their disciples to the trial , with 15 martial artists protecting them they wouldn't have faced a stiff resistance and there was a 4th grade martial artist too. They would have had a field day. They both clenched their fists remembering it. Their hatred for Jiang Chen increased more. If not for plan to kill Jiang Chen was there ,they wouldn't have suffered such misfortune.

Ha Ling who heard this smirked controlling laugh. Shangguan Ning'er has an indifferent expression too.

Ning'er "It is almost time for the trial to end why are they not here yet?"

Su Mo "Don't worry about it. Jiang Chen is with them there will not be any trouble."

They were standing on a ship with Myriad River Sect's flag on it. There were another ship beside it. There are others waiting in that ship. There were thousands who are waiting there.

Xue Long "What are we waiting for, there are already over thousand gathered here for seven hundred seats."

Chuan Mo just chuckled at this he was watching the happenings silently. There was a person downside registering the amount of energy drops a person brought. They fixed the maximum count for thousand only, any extra drops were just ignored.

Chuan Mo "Yes , since its already over thousand members we would have to reevaluate the procedure now. We will decide who gain entry through other factors after the time in completed."

Xue Long "Are you expecting someone to come, elder?

Chuan Mo "Jiang Chen is yet to come. I don't think he would fail in this trial."

Xue Long "Jiang Chen?" he has an indifferent expression on his face.

Xue Long "He may be genius alchemist and weapon maker, but I haven't heard much about his fighting skills. Except that incident with a alchemist from Southern grand."

Xue Long "He didn't get into trouble right."

Then he looked at Han family side. Han Ming's subordinates are yet to come.

Then he turned to River Spring family side and asked.

Xue Long "Brother Ha Ling, what is Jiang Chen's current cultivation."

Ha Ling was surprised that some one asked him a question ."He broke through to 4th stage recently."

Xue Long "Oh! already at fourth stage. He really is unique. He rivals many of the high earth rank geniuses.You are not worried about him?"

Ha Ling "I haven't seen his tribulation technique around, so it is almost certain that he didn't get into any fights. So, it should be because of others." said indifferently.

One of the geniuses behind spoke "Obviously, a week background can tie down a person like Jiang Chen too." they are from Xie family. They positioned themselves in a side, there were over 50 members from their family on the ship divided into 6 groups. The person who spoke now was Xie Mo, eldest son of Xie family patriarch.

Ha Ling and others were just silent and didn't respond back.

Ning Mo "This is first time there are this many people representing River Spring city entering Myriad Rivers sect. It would be foolish to expect some one else to come."

Ning Bo "Also I see, some people from Han family are yet to come? Did something happen between them?"

Xue Mo "There was a small clash I heard, Han family was not happy with Jiang Chen selling method to practice alchemy without fire attribute."

Han Ming "There was no clash between our family and Jiang Chen, we even wanted to invite him to explore our techniques. I heard he is very good at analyzing skills."

Ning'er "Funny, I didn't know where it came from, Jiang Chen didn't sell it he just gifted it to Pill Palace." she was really upset at this.

Su Mo "Leave it sister Ning'er. Even if they wanted to ,they will not be able to harm brother Jiang we all know what he is capable of."

WuXia "Some one else are coming."

As soon as she said that everyone turned their eyes towards the exit of the forest and there were over two hundred members coming in a formation.

Bai Mo was shocked seeing this, there were people from Bai family too in it. They were followed by Jiang Chen and others. Jiang Chen was looking as elegant as before.

Ning'er "Jiang Chen is here and also are people from our city."

Ha Ling and Su Mo didn't respond but they could see some difference in the people following Jiang Chen.

Su Mo "Brother Ling did you notice the changes too."

Ha Ling "Yes, it seems more natural. He really did it."

WuXia was paying attention on River Spring side's conversation. She tried to find what is the change but she couldn't find one too.

Chuan Mo "They are here. I don't know how many of them would be able to pass the trial." he already know the answer but still asked it.

Even the person who was registering also know what would be result of this side.

Ha Ling "Brother Jiang you are just in time."

Jiang Chen "We waited out to avoid unnecessary trouble."

Ha Ling "Yes, quickly show them your orbs and register the result."

Jiang Chen "Yes, I can't delay that."

Jiang Chen then proceeded along with his people, to the desk where registration was happening.

Jiang Chen "Elder, there seemed to be more than thousand here. In what way are you shortlisting people." he asked politely.

Elder "We will shortlist based on time of arrival and no. of drops in their orb.People who brought thousand drops would be selected directly others will have to wait for further decision."

Jiang Chen "Its alright then."

Every one want to know the result of Jiang Chen, he came late intentionally, he also seemed like he didn't involve in any fights.

Soon everyone in Jiang Chen's group excluding took out their Energy orbs they kept in hibernation ring.

Elder just smiled and didn't even check them completely."1000 drops, and no additional orbs."

He said out loud.

Elder "All 126 of you are eligible to enter the sect."

Everyone else were shocked at this. It is not first time they have seen result of 1000 drops, but that result was less than 100 people till now. But Jiang Chen's group all of them have 1000 drops also they didn't show additional orbs.

WuHen "Wow. They brought their energy orb intact, without loosing a single drop. Jiang Chen is really amazing."

WuXia "He is amazing. I just want to know how he did it."

One of the disciple couldn't control himself and asked.

"Elder there isn't any favoring right. How could their orbs be intact, they even came on last day. Their orbs should have been reduced to 3/4ths. You didn't give them rigged ones right?"

that disciple was really frustrated he was inline , he rushed through the forest very fast and was able to come here before his orb even loose 300 drops.

"You didn't even check their orbs while registering."

Elder "Idiots, we don't have to favor any one specially. Our test was really fair and square. I didn't check their orbs because I can already sense the thousand drops on every orb."

Elder then turned to Jiang Chen "Jiang Chen, please explain to this fools how you did it."

Jiang Chen just signed to Shangguan Chen to answer it.

Shangguan Chen "Energy dispersing parasite is also categorized as but a beast. Even they form beast cores. We just put them in our hibernation ring putting it into hibernation preventing it from dispersing the energy. It is just a simple test. What is there to cheat for."

When Shangguan Chen spoke that Ha Ling and others could not stop but laughing . Even Su Mo was smirking at it.

WuHen was dumbstruck hearing this "Elder sister, would you think of it the same way."

WuXia just smiled "I would have taken sometime to come to that conclusion. I would not be able to break it that fast. Also I don't have a beast with me and also hibernation ring."

Everyone who heard this were angry to core, is it some kind of sick joke. They did lot of hard works coming here for the drops they brought, they even lost few people in this process and many of them were injured too. Even Xie family people suffered few losses. And then forget speaking about all the people who already lost their lives. There were over two thousand people who lost their lives in the trip and many returned back withdrawing from the blood shed.

All their hard work and yet these people take the leader board, without doing a thing.

WuHen was smirking looking at the reaction of Xue family people below, they lost dozen or so members and only 15 members came with thousand drops.

Disciple "This is ridiculous, they cheated , they cheated to do this. How can they do such a thing. They cheated the test."

Jiang Chen just smiled and led his people away from there.

Elder "Jiang Chen, you people can enter the ship, you will receive your medallion there."

Jiang Chen cupped his hands thanking the elder "Thank you elder." following him everyone from River Spring city did same.

Elder "These people failed the test. They should not be able to become disciples of the sect." he said pointing towards the people from Bai family.

Jiang Chen "They will enter the sect as our representatives/retainers."

Then elder just nodded his head and let them in. Bai Mo was shivering at this, his people are still under control of Jiang Chen. He can't do a thing.

WuXia "Deadly dangerous. WuHen , lucky you made a good impression on him , if we become his enemies I am scared even to imagine."

WuHen didn't understand a thing his sister is saying but just nodded her head.

"We won't accept the result. Jiang Chen used external means to clear the test."

Chuan Mo "Oh! Is that so?"

Chuan Mo "How many of you don't have hibernation rings, almost everyone of you have a beast, why didn't you think of the same method. This is not using external means."

Elder Go "Elder Mo it can be considered as external means for them. Jiang Chen used brain and common sense that they are lacking."

Chuan Mo was about to burst to laughter but controlled "Yes, that creates a serious problem."

Everyone who were angry at Jiang Chen almost vomited blood at this. This is serious humiliation.

Xue Long "Elder , yet it is only Jiang Chen that came up with the idea. Others just followed him, you cant allow everyone to enter sect just because Jiang Chen."

Xue Long understood , hundred people from River Spring sect entering the sect means, proportional amount of his family disciples not entering.

Chuan Mo "It can't be said so, just because your family have 30 martial artists disciples taking part, they gathered over hundred orbs. Do you believe that your family disciples would be able to gain same amount if they were not there."

Chuan Mo blatantly rejected it.

Chuan Mo "I never mentioned and restricted the mode you use , I just asked that you bring me more than 500 drops. You are free to use your own methods. I didn't reject those who brought multiple drops about their method. If you want to question Jiang Chen's method , then he could question your method too being unethical and filled with blood shed."

Chuan Mo "Those who doubt us, we don't need you in our sect, you can leave now. After that I will not entertain your questions." he roared out angrily.

Jiang Chen was not bothered by it all, he simply went to Ha Ling and others and was sneakily holding Ning'er arms.' I missed you.'

Ning'er "Scoundrel, you could have come early, we got so tired waiting for you."

Ha Ling "Brother , your trip seems a success."

Jiang Chen "It is. They seem motivated now and are thinking in right direction. I cant help about those 60 people though."
